In-Vitro Synergistic Antibacterial Effect Of Aqueous And Ethanolic Extract Of Garcinia Kola Seeds And Gongmnema Lahfolium Leaves On Some Selected Enteric Pathogens.
ABSTRACT
The in-vitro synergistic
antibacterial effect of aqueous and ethanolic extract of Gongronema latfolium
leaves and Garcinia kola seeds investigated against Siaphylococcus aureus,
Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coil. Agar well diffusion method was
used for the antibacterial activity. The susceptibility of the test organisms
to the plant extracts was performed and diameters of the inhibition were
recorded. The ethanolic extract of the two plants in synergy showed the highest
inhibitory activity. P. aeruginosa was the most susceptible (23.3mm) to the
extract in synergy while S. aureus was inhibited the least (6.3mm) for the
aqueous extract and was compared to standard control ciprofloxacin. The minjmum
inhibitory concentration (MIC) was evaluated for each plant extract and ranged
from 6.25 to 100mg/mi. The result of this research work showed that the two
plants in synergy had higher antibacterial activity compared to the plant when
used individually. This can be employed as a form of antibacterial agent.
